Excel 2003 :: Find Second Number Set In Cell
Dec 3, 2012Trying to isolate the second number in cell.
If I have 48X144X68 in J10, I need 144.
I tried:
=MID(J10,FIND("X",J10,2)+1,3) which works, but when a cell has 65X50X68, then I get 50X where I only want 50.
The numbers can vary in size (i.e., 1 to 5 digits) but always separated by an X or some letter.

Excel 2003 :: How To Remove Characters To The Right Of Last Occurrence Of Special Character
Mar 30, 2011I have a column of text where I need to remove all the characters to the right of the last occurance of a special character.
I think a process like reading from right to left, look for the first occurance of the special character, and return the characters to the left of this position.
If I can determine the position of the last occurance of the special character, I could use the LEFT function.
The SEARCH function is close. It finds the position of the first occurance of text inside text but it reads from left to right. I need to read from right to left.
Another approach is to examine each character one by one from right to left. If the character is not the special character, delete it. When the character is the special character, delete it and stop the process.
There is no consistency in the text. The total lengths vary. The number of times the special character occurs in the text vary. The number of characters to the right or left of the last special character vary.
I much prefer not to have the solution be some VBA because I need to share it with others who are even less capable than I am. We are using Excel 2003.
Excel 2003 :: Compare Characters Between Two Columns And Output Results In Same Worksheet?
Feb 6, 2013I have a worksheet with five columns (A, B, C, D and E)
The cells in Column B contain letters and/or numbers (without spaces) in no particular order.
The cells in Column C contain letters and/or numbers (without spaces) in no particular order.
I want to compare all characters in 1st Cell of Column B with all characters in 1st Cell of Column C, and display the matching characters in 1st Cell of Column D, and the character count of 1st Cell in Column D must be displayed in 1st Cell of Column E. note that multiple instances of the same character must not be treated as duplicates. When execution on 1st Row is finished then repeat procedure for Row 2, etc... Stop execution when first empty cell in Column B is located.
Example:
B1 = LJLM12
C1 = KY2MLK
B2 = ZCG4GM
C2 = X4GGGC
B3 = KTCBNG
C3 = GNBTBB
The script/code/formula must output the following:
D1 = LM2
E1 = 3
D2 = CG4G
E2 = 4
D3 = TBNG
E3 = 4

Excel 2003 :: Correct Approach For Number Format?
Feb 14, 2012I have several sources of information for client files. the number format includes a reference number and a month, eg 123/11, 456/02. In some cases, the numbers may be presented including the company initials, eg ABC/00123/11. I want to make sure all numbers on all sources are the same as I am using Vlookup and this reference no to copy information from one source to another. Sometimes when I change the format Excel sees this as a date, eg 11/11 is 11-Nov, and in some cases Excel sees a fraction, eg 123/11 is 123 11ths or 123 divided by 11.
I can easily take out the reference no with a find and replace FIND ABC/ replace with . But this often results in a number with leading zeroes, eg ABC/0123/06 will leave 0123/06.

Excel 2003 :: Count Number Of Rows Between 2 Times
Feb 17, 2012I am using excel 2003. My sheet contains Times in column A and numbers in column B. I want to be able to count how many of those rows fall into time periods. Such as how many are from 8:00-9:00 AM. I do have the time column formatted as Time.
Ex:
A1: 3:40 PM
A2: 8:20 AM
A3: 8:55 AM
A4: 10:23 AM
etc.
B1: 23
B2: 34
B3: 12
B4: 35
etc.
So I want to be able to pull that between 8 and 9 AM there are 2 records.
The second part would be (in another cell) to pull the SUM of the numbers that correspond to the previous question. In the previous example it would be the SUM of all corresponding cells (Column B) that fall within the 8 and 9 AM range. Which would be 46 in this example.

Excel 2003 :: VBA Code To Add Letter Suffix To Number
Jul 30, 2014From an Excel 2003 workbook I generate some product labels. Each label has a 5 digit job number and a quantity that are passed to variables. If the quantity is 1, then I have no problems in printing my label. My problem is where the quantity is greater than 1. If a job has more than 1 item (can be up to 40 or 50) I need to add a series of letter (or letters) to the end of the job number.
For example:
Job number 12345
qty 1
number on label 12345
Job number 12346
qty 4
numbers on labels 12346A, 12346B, 12346C, 1234D
so that each printed label has a unique job number

Excel 2003 :: Calculating Number Of Overlapping Days With Several Date Ranges?
Jun 25, 2010I am having difficulty calculating the number of total overlapping days between several date ranges (6 of them to be precise)
I am using Excel 2003 and my data looks like this:
Sent Out (A) - Received (B)
01/06/2010 13:00 - 30/06/2010 13:00
02/06/2010 13:00 - 16/06/2010 13:00
09/06/2010 13:00 - 10/06/2010 13:00
21/06/2010 13:00 - 25/06/2010 9:44
23/06/2010 13:00 - 25/06/2010 10:56
23/06/2010 13:00 - 29/06/2010 13:00
I really can't wrap my head around the idea of calculating overlap (in network days) between six date ranges and was wondering if any of you would have a solution to this problem.
Excel 2003 :: Calculating Number Of Overlapping Days With Several Date Ranges And Conditions

I am using Excel 2003 and my data looks like this:

1234 01/06/2010 - 30/06/2010 1234 -

Limiting Number Of Characters In A Cell
Jan 21, 2009I'm creating a spreadsheet (Excel 2003) in which a user enters data in several cells, each of which will permit different numbers of characters (to include spaces). For example, in the first cell, the user will be limited to 50 characters, in the second cell, the limit is 30 characters, and so on.
I found the data validation error alert feature, but want to give the user a cue that the entry is too long so they know to stop typing before moving to the next cell. If they only are alerted when they finish making the entry, they might not take the time to properly reconstruct the entry to meet the size limitation. I'm trying to make this more user-friendly.
Is there a way to set up the worksheet so the user knows that the entry is approaching the character limit? For example, each character filling an individual cell or having a display appear with a count-down for the number of characters remaining in the limit, or something similar.
Copying Certain Number Of Characters From The Right In A Cell?
Sep 11, 2012I have a column that is made up of postcodes, lat, long, eastern, northern data eg: SK10 5BA, 53.291013, -2.096675, 393652, 377121
And I want to end up with a column containing the lat (53.291013) and another containing the long (-2.096675).
I have worked out to use formula's to remove a certain number of characters from the left and right of the cell, but the challenge here is the postcode at the begining of the data, can be varying in length.
know of a formula that will let me copy a certain number of characters within the cell, but counted from the right, as the eastern and northern numbers are always the same length.
